IMO I don't think that 30-30 bullets are going to be any more advantageous than a reliably expanding spitzer style bullet. In tests I have seen the spire point bullets even do a better job through brush than the traditional round nose or flat tip "brush busters."
The spire point bullets wil have an advantage in dealing with both wind and trajectory over the 30-30 style bullets.

"T/C Nut" Thanks for the link but I did not find anything for the 308 in rifle or handgun. Where do I look?

Here's a link for 308 data in a 15" barrel.

I took 4 deer this year with my standard 15" 308 Encore and Nosler 165 BT's, at ranges from 30 yd's to 150. (hardest shot was at 30 yd's.) With my limited experience thus far with Nosler BT's, I think they're too explosive. I'm getting 2524 fps with mine using BLC2 and data from the above link. Skinning deer can be very revealing. The one shot at 30 Yd's was shot through the heart (left side)and blew the right front leg off! The exit wound was big enough to put your fist in it and there was a lot of blood shot meat on all the deer with that bullet.
